Its a 98 cobra, v-1 S-trim going to a T (why not, needs a rebuild anyway), I got a set of 42#ers, a SCT BA2800 MAF, finally got my hands on an aftercooler set up w/ a fluidyne heat exchanger . . . only thing I need now is a new fuel pump. I'm running the stock pump and a T-Rex w/ Vortech's FMU...
I don't think my car is low enough and I want to resolve that before the Fab Fords Show on April 20th.
Here is the problem: it has lowering springs already. The first owner (I'm the third) put the spring kit on and the second owner has no idea what brand they are. THEY ARE BRIGHT RED, which...
Hey New Edge guys . . .
Where can I buy the silver SVT center caps that came on your cars stock?
(besides going to a ford dealer. Though it looks like that might be my only option)
I've tried Ford Racing and most other replica retailers; but, have come back empty handed.:shrug: Everyone's...
Long Story Short: well maybe not that short.
In my group of friends it’s always been a "who can beat who" competition. Probably the same for most groups of friends w/ fast cars. Anyway, my buddy with a pristine low mile Azure blue Mach 1, who shall remain nameless...
FIRST: I KNOW IT’S NOT LOWERED ENOUGH. Working on it, right now the exhaust is wwwwaaaayyyy low. So I am going to address that asap.
SECOND: I KNOW MY TIRES ARE PATHETIC, CHEAP AND SMALL. That’s on the list (it's a big list).
But, these are the first shots of the car, didn't wash it or...
Because I'm lazy and because most of you prob have done this research already :beer:.

I finally dragged my car down to the dyno yesterday. It's been 1500 miles since the final bolt on the new bottom end was tightened and 9 months since I blew the old one up.
First off: You know all the great things being said about Greg @ RET down here in southern Cali? "Great customer service...
Well, I'm not so filthy wealthy that I can buy a set of Fikse Profil5's (one of my dream wheels):

But, thanks to an old post on here by blackfang, I've grown to love the...
I know its prob a repost; but, its still one of my favorite engine sounds. :bowdown:
I happened to run by the vids of this beautiful rx7 again and thought I would post them up.

Did a quick search couldn't find where to get these . . . the so called "Black Beauties." I love the clear lens and smoked/black housing. :coolman:
Can anyone post a pic of them on our cars and/or a link to where I could get my hands on a set. THANKS :beer:
Once again I searched and found...
So I am still breaking in the new motor; but, will probably put it on the rollers within the next week or so.
Mods in Sig.
I saw 13#’s of boost with the Power Pipe before it blew up.
EDIT: P.S. hoping for at least 420 rwhp. Well?
I mean, it’s one of the greatest feelings a car guy can have.
Got the call from Mark at MMR today stating, "Your car's done!"
What a great Christmas present to myself.
I can't begin to say enough good things about Mark at MMR:
- Always responded to my emails.
- Fixed allot things...
Well here is my late addition to the SEMA 07 pics. I want to apologize ahead of time for the poor quality. My friend took all of them and his camera was having some issues indoors. Also he gave me a couple CD’s with only a few of the hundreds and hundreds of pics he took. So here they are...
Started taking apart my motor this past weekend (taking allot longer than I expected). Still haven't taken the heads off yet. I know of this timing kit that can lock the cams in place. Is this worth the investment or does anyone know of another way to do this? The bottom end is going to the...
Well long story, short: I think (have not completely taken the engine apart yet) that I have fragged a ring land on one of the stock pistons. So . . . forged pistons for replacement, right?
Anyway what I need help deciding is exactly what to do. Should I go with a lower compression (problem...
It has been a while since I joined this site when I first got my Focus . . . I haven't done much to it since the purchase really; but, I realized that I never posted any pics of it. Especially with the custom powder coat on the rims. My buddy took some pics and I thought that I would share...
I know a lot of us SoCal boys are going to fab fords; but I wonder if and how we can tell who's WHO from SVTP at the show. I'd like to meet people from the site and check out their cars in person. What if we write our SVTP usernames on the spec sheets they give us to put in our windshields...

I could not find much info on the topic with the search option . . . I know vortech's aftercooler and paxtons air-air . . . does anyone run (or know of) other options for air-air/ air-water "complete" kits for our cars. I currently have a s-trim, so something that would complement this would be...
